Based in Miami, Florida I am a transdisciplinary artist working to contextualize and visualize the stratum of queerness that is tied to the body, experience, and fantasy. My artwork takes a critical view of social, political and cultural issues filtered through an autobiographical approach. Pulling from esoteric pop culture to inform my aesthetics my artistic practice is a transdisciplinary one that evades the rigid forms of genre and style to create photographs, drawings, sculptures, paintings, video work, and live performance that are overtly queer. My art work creates extra-dimensional spaces outside the normative world where my various characters, from Coneheads to Clowns, become inhabitants. In doing so, I render impossible situations where fractures in meaning-making opens up and intelligibility becomes improbable. In construing queer affects like terror, horror, melancholy, the uncanny and negation along those spaces I bring the audience into a 'Strange Place' as a way of making the critique more of an affective experience rather than a literal one.
